From a mom who became an unlikely cook: A chronicle about what happens when I plan to cook something good just once a week. Our dog gives her "Paw Rating" based upon whether she tripped me by staying in the kitchen while I cooked.
My Chronicle
Attainable goals are the ones for me. Encouraged by our dog Spot and family eaters, I purpose to cook once a week and make it new and delicious. If I cook more often, I get more weeks off later on.

Congratulations on the World's Best Banana Bread!
One of my favorite people is Buddy the Elf. I love when he runs into a NYC Cafe and jumps up and down yelping "Congratulations! You did it! You did it!!" All because he saw the sign out front: World's Best Coffee. Well, jump some more, Buddy. This is the world's best no-fail banana bread.
Preheat oven to 350 and grease two glass loaf pans, be sure to get the corners.
1. In mixing bowl, cream together:
3/4 cup unsalted butter
1 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
3 beaten eggs
2 cups bran cereal
2. In a medium size bowl, mix:
3-4 cups rip bananas with 3-4 tsp. vanilla extract
3. In a third bowl, mix:
3 cups flour
4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp baking soda
1/2+ cups chopped walnuts
4. Combine:
Add flour and banana mixtures alternately to the main bowl in 3 equal parts, mix well between additions. Stir til blended.
Pour evenly into pans and bake for 55 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
This is moist and delicious! Eat one and freeze one til later. Or if you have a teenage son, just leave them on the counter, they'll be gone in a couple of days.
Spot gives this 4 paws, silly dog.
